the auto trans is a ALL OUT mpg killer, its a non O\D, non lock up trans....
add in the 4 cylinder engine 4 door and A\C and it will be very hard to brake the 40 mpg mark even with "very aggressive" gas saving driving.
going with the flow of traffic 30/34 is common for it..
theres one model the, "geo metro XFI"
the cam shaft out of it is the most valuable mpg item...
but over all the XFI was made with one purpose and thats max mpg...
